I've seen a few of these on Netflix. Great series. Thanks for the reminder to seek out more.
The links vary in length from the full hour to five minutes or so. Just curious about that.comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851681Fri, 01 Mar 2013 21:57:40 -0800wallabearBy: zoinkshttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851683
Just so folks know, at least some of these are available on Netflix streaming as well.
I especially like the sequences of producers or engineers or musicians sitting at a mixing desk and bringing different elements of the songs in and out and getting to hear how it all fits together. I think there were sequences like this in each of the ones I've seen.comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851683Fri, 01 Mar 2013 21:58:29 -0800zoinksBy: chococathttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851689
Loved this show. I've seen a bunch of them but man, this is a great list.
Thanks for this; I was JUST sitting here thinking that I didn't want to go to bed yet and wishing there was a good music FPP to dig into...comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851689Fri, 01 Mar 2013 22:05:54 -0800chococatBy: mediated selfhttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851691
The episode on Fleetwood Mac's <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumours">Rumours</a></em> is not listed in the FPP but it is available on Netflix. That episode was my introduction to this series and expanded my appreciation of one of my favorite rock albums (the band members were all breaking up with each other while they were recording the album!).

when it's good, it's very good ... exactly the kind of thing I love, which is to get the process behind certain songs/albums I've come to love. I just wish they'd done it for more of my fave albums.

Unfortunately it seems like the Reasonable Doubt one has sync issues.
I've watched the Aja one a couple times since they were added to Netflix but I never noticed Rumors was on there. I just had to watch it. I knew the gist of the story, but didn't know how specific the songs really were. I can't imagine being asked to play on a song your recent ex wife wrote about her new lover.comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851783Sat, 02 Mar 2013 02:01:59 -0800Ad hominemBy: DiscountDeityhttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851832
I love these things. I think Netflix also has episodes for <em>Who's Next</em> and <em>Graceland</em>.comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851832Sat, 02 Mar 2013 04:22:48 -0800DiscountDeityBy: Mr Edhttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851840

I've got both the Rumors and Aja episodes on DVD they fascinate me. I've spent just enough time in recording studios to understand what's happening, and to also be just dumbstruck-awed by how fucking talented and skilled those people are. I love studio-craft and consider it as much an art form as the playing/singing.
The nuance you get when they break down Buckingham's guitar bits in a couple places is stunning in it's complexity when you realize how it got blended in to where these little parts were almost in audible individually, but at the same time, absolutely essential to the resolution of the song. And of course, watching Chuck Rainey &amp; Bernard Pudie play those bits solo is just pure porn for me.
I want all these.comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851853Sat, 02 Mar 2013 04:50:47 -0800Devils RancherBy: readyfreddyhttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851867
When this show is good, it's GREAT.

And unfortunately, this is where the show falls short. The early episodes all did this. It was fascinating to heard Duran's Rio deconstructed. And that you can tell that Nick Rhodes isn't really a good player and relies on computers/arps (that means hope for me! yay! but Taylor kills on bass). The Pink Floyd episode was similarly awesome. But then other episodes are little more than short bios of footage you've seen a million times before. And no sitting at the desk deconstructing the songs. (i wish the whole show was just that)comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851867Sat, 02 Mar 2013 05:23:12 -0800readyfreddyBy: smackfuhttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851887
They are on Netflix but they really highlight how hard it is to find stuff on there. These shows technically share nothing except a common cover design. They aren't listed as a series, they don't all have Greatest Albums in the title, only som have common directors.
But they are great. Some are better than others. Some artists just aren't that into the technical side so it ends up just being a history of th band documentary rather than a breakdown of one album.comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851887Sat, 02 Mar 2013 05:48:56 -0800smackfuBy: C.A.S.http://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851894
"Where's London Calling?"
My fav quote of all time, from AVClub about REO Speedwagon's Hi Infidelity. According to the head of Epic, REO Speedwagon was giving out gold watches to label guys to get the promo effort at the time.
"It wouldn't have bothered me so much if the REO album had been a real good album," Asher said. "But it just wasn't. The Clash had a super album, and it was not getting any support. And I was meeting with [the heads of Epic], and I said, 'I don't hear anything about The Clash.' And they said, 'Well, we're working this REO album, it's much more important.'"comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4851894Sat, 02 Mar 2013 05:55:53 -0800C.A.S.By: photoslobhttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4851909
The deconstruction of several of the songs on the TP and the Heartbreakers doc is absolutely amazing.

I've seen the Dead's "Anthem to Beauty" episode a few times and it really is "all that" - just a perfect deconstruction of their best creative period, at least from a songwriting and studio perspective. Looking forward to enjoying the rest of this series.

Some links are to YouTube playlists, which still have the inline video icons [►], but will only display the first video in the series.

The only one of these I have NOT loved has been the one on Metallica, and I'm not sure if that's the series' fault or the band's. The Iron Maiden ep is great, as is the one on Black Sabbath (favorite part: Ozzie didn't know what to sing for Iron Man, so he just duplicates the guitar riff.)comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4852547Sat, 02 Mar 2013 16:41:18 -0800WulfhereBy: Purposeful Grimacehttp://www.metafilter.com/125544/Classic-Albums-covering-3-decades-of-popular-music#4852571
The perfect deconstruction is Steely Dan's "Aja" show. Bonus for having Bernard "Pretty" Purdie on it.

The Wailers one is a real treat. Great interviews with the musicians, producers and engineers and early footage of Bob Marley &amp; the Wailers.

Good series. Like the episodes on The Band and Yellow Brick Road best. Would have killed for episodes on The Queen is Dead or Exile on Main Street.comment:www.metafilter.com,2013:site.125544-4863059Sat, 09 Mar 2013 03:35:30 -0800WhitenoisE
